A hyperlink with a Slicer?

Hello,

 

I just want to ask if it is possible to click on one of the checkbox in slicer and then it will automatically redirect into a pdf attachment? Based on my research, I'd have to put it into a site and insert the link. I can easily do that in a textbox. But I want it to be on a slicer.

 

I've already created two columns and convert the URL column into a WebURL.

StatusURL
Status 1https://1
Status 2https://2

 

For this, I have created a slicer for Status column and when I click on Status 1, I want it to be redirected to URL https://1 automatically.

 

Another thing I want to ask, Can one slicer will be shown only, once they click on another slicer?

for example.

 

Slicer 1

Department
IT dept.
Accounting dept.
HR dept.

 

When I choose the IT dept. on Slicer 1, Slicer 2 will pop up. And yes the Slicer 2 is the first question above.
Slicer 2

StatusURL
Status 1https://1
Status 2https://2

 

Sorry to ask these things as I am just new in Power BI and I would really need some help. Thank you so much!

@Anonymous , I doubt the first one is possible. The best you can have it is on a table

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/power-bi-hyperlinks-in-tables

 

I tried with hyper link in the slicer. It is the same as a normal slicer.

 

For the second one, they should filter , if there are from same table

Else you can follow the approach of adding a visual level filter of fact measure not blank.
